@tisuchi @tomi @willvincent

following discussion may help you... https://stackoverflow.com/questions/37719851/pinging-test-dev-after-laravel-valet-install-returns-unknown-host

@tisuchi i am using ubuntu, forked version of valet.. My valet is working fine, I just don't know how to access my localhost or local IP.

my view file is following :

<script>
        //var socket = io('http://localhost:3000');
        var socket = io('http://127.0.1.1:3000');
        socket.on("test-channel:App\\Events\\EventName", function(message){
            // increase the power everytime we load test route
            $('#power').text(parseInt($('#power').text()) + parseInt(message.data.power));
        });
    </script>

I ran following socket

 node socket.js
Listening on Port 3000

it listens to port 3000 but I'm not being able to ping by following :

ping 127.0.0.1:3000
ping localhost:3000
ping project.dev:3000

@tisuchi

sir I tried to implement by this link :

[https://laracasts.com/discuss/channels/general-discussion/step-by-step-guide-to-installing-socketio-and-broadcasting-events-with-laravel-51]

All went fine, I just cannot access/ping my server:port
